Title

hockey sticks weight.

Problem Scenario

My Problem scenario is weither hockey wood or a alumin hockey stick would break eaiser by putting 10 pound weights on them in the middle until they break.I would do the same for both and then

Broad Question

do wood or alumni sticks break easier?

Specific Question

Do wood or aluminium hockey sticks hold more weight?

Hypothesis

I am comparing wither wood sticks, that are made out of maple, or alumni sticks break eaiser.

Graph of Hypothesis

Variables

Independent Variable: The hockey stick or the kind of hockey stick. (WOOD or ALUMINUM)

Dependent Variable: How much weight the hockey sticks can hold.

Variables That Need To Be Controlled: The most popular hockey stick.

General Plan

My plan for this experiment is too get two wood hockey sticks and two alumni hockey sticks. Next I got two cinder blocks and put them on the ground stick length between them. Then I put the hockey stick on both of them.I put weights on the middle of the stick until one of them breaks. I record the data. And do the same for both sticks. Then i see which one breaks easier. Then that is my conclusion.

Potential Problems And Solutions

breaking the sticks and not wanting to waste them. may cost money to buy one if I do not want to ruin my own.

Safety Or Environmental Concerns

wood from the sticks, splinters. wear glasses when doing this jamming fingers when putting weights down.

Experimental Design

(add the correct headings from the experimental design page before beginning)

Resource

Controlled, manipulated experiment

What is your experimental unit?

This is the base unit of your experiment, for example, one plant, one ice cube, one dish. It is the thing you will be measuring.
4 hockey sticks. as many as i need 10 pounds. 2 blocks. and the weight.

Number Of Trials:

This is how many times you will repeat the experiment.
1

Number Of Subjects In Each trial:

This is the number of different treatments you will use. For example, if you are comparing rust formation using salt and no salt, there would be 2 subjects in each trial. If you were comparing rust formation with no salt and three different amounts of salt, then you would have 4 subjects in each trial.

Detailed Procedure

1.first find a wood and alumin stick.
2. get two blocks and put them down stick length apart.
3.put a stick on the blocks
4. put weights on the middle of the sticks.
5. see how much weight breaks the stick.
6. record the data
7. do the same for both sticks and see which one breaks easier.
